Meet Shauna Jones, also known as Shauna_BlackLens on Instagram, a trailblazer in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) for marginalized communities. With an MBA from Florida A&M University and a Master's in Technology Management degree from Georgetown University, Shauna brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her work as a Commercial Real Estate banker for a prominent financial institution.

But Shauna is not just a financial services professional, she's an emerging AI artist with a mission to change the way black people, particularly black women, see themselves through beautiful portrayals in places they never imagined. Her multicultural roots, a combination of Canadian, Trinidadian, and Nigerian (via marital ties), give her a unique perspective on the world, one that she loves to infuse in her work, both in the boardroom and in her art form. Shauna's love for Africa is evident in her use of African prints and influences in her AI art, a reflection of her many travels to over 60 countries, with a goal of reaching 100.

In addition to her professional and artistic pursuits, Shauna is a proud mother to her son Jordan, an emerging AI artist and Freshman at Morehouse College. She is also a dedicated member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., where she pledged into the Beta Alpha Chapter, in the Fall of 2001, during her matriculation at FAMU.

Shauna is passionate about using AI for the betterment of marginalized communities and is dedicated to sharing her journey and thoughts on the rapidly growing field of AI through her social media page and Facebook Group. By doing so, she hopes to connect with others who are passionate about using AI to make a positive impact on the world and inspire them to explore the possibilities of this powerful technology. Join her on her journey, as she uses her education, career, and passion for the African diaspora to create beautiful, powerful AI art that empowers marginalized communities.
